Any Sniper Rifle will be a 2 shot kill to the stomach/legs because you only get 0.93X damage, so that’s a max of 93 points of damage. With any other Sniper Rifle you will get a kill shot if you hit the head or chest/arms. Any shots with these rifles to the chest/arms or stomach/legs will require 2 shots from full health. To get exact numbers for damage and any numbers for the others you need to make a trip over to Symthic (link above).ĭAMAGE: The Scout Elite, SV-98 and FY-JS are all 2 shot kills not counting headshots. You might also consider bullet drop and muzzle velocity. In my opinion the stats to compare for Battlefield 4’s Sniper Rifles are the damage, mag size and reload speed. Sniper Rifles allow the player to reach out at long distances with lethality and accuracy beyond other weapon classes.Īll Sniper Rifles in BF4 are bolt action, anything semi-automatic is classified as a Designated Marksman Rifle* except for the SR338 which is semi-auto, and IMHO, seems to perform more like a DMR. Sniper Rifles in Battlefield 4 are exclusive to the Recon class. To see the behind-the-scenes differences in these Sniper Rifles that DICE unfortunately chose not to show us in-game head on over to Symthic’s Battlefield 4 Weapon Stats page.
